As well as having a role in lipid absorption, bile acids can act as endocrine-signaling molecules. With previous studies suggesting that bile acids operate as metabolic integrators, Watanabe et al.

As far as I know, no one has previously discovered molecules like these bile acids that can interact with the androgen receptor in this way," said co-senior author Dr. Chun-Jun Guo, an associate ...

Blocking YAP's repressor activity—either by enhancing FXR function or promoting bile acid excretion—could stop this damaging cycle, according to researchers. In experimental models, activating ...

India, April 20 -- Bacteria naturally present in the human intestine, known as the gut microbiota, can transform cholesterol-derived bile acids into powerful metabolites that strengthen anti ...

This improvement occurs through the modulation of intestinal microbiota and bile acid metabolism. The study is published in Food Bioscience. Using high-performance liquid chromatography–mass ...
